Description
Summary:Penicillin allergy is the most frequently reported allergy in hospitalized patients, although rarely confirmed. Given the negative outcomes associated with incorrect penicillin allergy diagnoses, implementation of programmatic delabeling strategies is important for successful antibiotic stewardship. This systematic review evaluates the effectiveness of different delabeling strategies and highlights elements and settings that facilitate or constrict their implementation.
